Since become the First Lady of the United States in 2009, Michelle Obama has become one of the most high profile people on the planet, with her style constantly being scrutinised by onlookers.
However, it appears she has taken all the pressure in her stride, and has consistently made fun choices with her wardrobe, all the while remaining completely appropriate for her role and looking fantastic in the process.
Michelle has all the top designers at her disposal and they are all honoured when she appears in one of their creations as it guarantees great quality exposure for their brand.

She is not afraid of colour and bright hues look fantastic on her; the same goes for colourful prints. She knows what shapes suit her but is also prepared to experiment and try out different looks.
When it comes to evening-wear, Michelle loves bold styles and pulls off the glamorous look well; she especially suits the strapless gowns she has worn over the years.
She is one of the world’s most famous mothers, with Barack and herself being parents to two daughters; Malia and Sasha. She often has to attend events with the whole family, and when they do appear in public together, their outfits often complement nicely without becoming too matching, perfect for photos!
